The Artist about herself

All my life, I have lived in a world filled with creativity and art. I have had wonderful teachers who showed me the magic of being creative. Being expressive through various avenues, including drawing, painting, ceramics, textile, and other crafts. Their guidance inspired me to continue to pursue my artistic endeavors. In recent years, I have participated in numerous workshops taught by prominent watermedia artists. As a result, my work, like the creative environment I live in, continues to evolve.

In 1989, I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I was devastated when I heard the news. While I was undergoing several operations and radiation, I began to explore watercolor and watermedia work. In 1994, treatments ended. I feel confident that I have overcome the disease.  In the process, I have gained a new perspective on what is truly meaningful to me. Now, I worry less about trivial things and enjoy the present which includes continuing to explore the endless possibilities of watercolor, watermedia, and collage.

Gardening is also one of my interests which is probably why most of my paintings are of botanical subjects. I feel that the bright colors, beautiful transparencies, and textures inherent in watermedia and collage give life and emotion to my work.

Mango

We are fortunate that mangoes thrive in our tropical Hawaiian climate. Locals and visitors alike enjoy the sweet exquisite taste of the mango. Mango season starts in spring with blossoms beginning to flower on trees and continues through summer with fruit production. As the fruit ripens the skin turns to bright red, orange, yellow, green, and purple. This is one of my favorite subjects to paint because of the vibrant colors and dark green leaves. It brings back childhood memories, when we picked the colorful Hayden and Pirie mangoes and shared them with family and friends.
